Amazing game. The only thing standing out to me at the moment are some of the animations. Did they really skimp out on animating things like people standing up from sitting? Usually when something like that happenes it cuts to black and returns with the person having stood up.

Just something that I've noticed in otherwise GOAT game

 

[Cess007]

Finished the 3rd palace last night after playing for hours when I told myself I would only play a quick session lol

The boss was quite easy actually, I'd more troubles with the normal enemies in the final section!

Equally good characters.

Rivers in the Desert though 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

 

[nOoblet16]

Imo i dont Think so, sure theres more real problems,

But persona 3 shows depression and suicide more graphically than 5, the story in general and atmosphere of persona 3 is more depressive

P3 is the emo kind of depressive. Depends on people if they find it depressive.

Dungeon Question: Timeframe Early-Mid November.

Spoiler

I got a good 16~14 days left to do Saes palace and now I gotta just send the calling card. Will the story move to where it was at the beginning of the game if I send the card or can I finish the Palace and have free time after I finish it (like how its been so far)

 

[KorrZ]

Considering dropping down to easy.... I'm in palace 3 but every time I get my MC randomly killed with a critical and lose progress I just quit playing.

Figure I would share this with you guys. Found it on Reddit:

You can send it, the game will not fast forward due to...reasons.

Currently on 10/24 and wondering if I'm going to have the time to finish some Confidants. Can someone who finished the game chime in?

Spoiler

Makoto rank 5
Yusuke rank 3
Sojiro rank 7
Futaba rank 7
Takemi rank 7
Mishima rank 9

That's a lot to do yet. I was blocked due to social stats on Sojiro and Makoto but I'm good there now. I also need a day in Mementos to progress on Takemi and Futaba. Am I going to have time?

It feels like I'm stuck in story now with my only free time being at night

 

[Mediking]

No.

They both are awesome in their own right.

And Sae is like a very aggresive version of Mitsuru.

You have time but the issue is that the characters don't show up everyday. Considering that you might be cutting it real close.

That only confirms what I said about it being emo kind of depressive. The whole gun to the head thing fits right into this as well.

Oh thsts just lame.

Final boss spoilers:

Spoiler

Got killed by Yaldabaoth's super charged attack due to it taking two turns and taking away the attack debuff on the boss along with the defense buff on my team. Would have been nice if Futaba hinted at it taking two turns instead of one. I was so close too...

boss charges in these games I always guard as soon as the charge stops until it finishes, because some charges in past games have also taken multiple turns and I never know until it happens.

Why is there so much animation in the twin fight. It's more than all of the bosses combined.

NG+ question:

Spoiler

At what level will the Justine/Caroline fight be actually doable? I tried it on level 24, but I cant even get past the 6th round. Do I basically need to go through the whole game again to beat this?

Cool thanks guys, I would def not have figured that out haha

You need to be pretty high level/have well fused Persona's to beat them. So yup, probably only doable towards the end of the game.

 

[MTC100]

Rivers in the Desert though 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

perfect, right?

 

[ArchedThunder]

I'm early in the game, enjoying it so far, but it really bugs the shit out of me that you have to use the D-Pad in the menus.

 

[Opa-Pa]

Fitting because I've been thinking of Makoto as "Mitsuru but actually interesting and not rich" for a while now.

 

[Jiraiza]

Finally.

Don't think I'll be able to max all my Confidants this playthrough, though.

[ASilentProtagonist]

My teenager just finished the game. He loved the game. Which persona game should he play next, 3 or 4?

Make sure he also checks out P3. It's still the best Persona game other than P2 which has the best story.

Definitely these two versions. I would say reverse the order though due to the character similarities in 4 and 5.

(and personally, Persona 3 is my favorite out of the two).

Imo i dont Think so, sure theres more real problems,

But persona 3 shows depression and suicide more graphically than 5, the story in general and atmosphere of persona 3 is more depressive

P3 definitely was more consistent with its overall dark tone. P5 kind of lost its edge at different points in the game.

Mitsuru definitely felt like much more of a leader than Makoto.
